What's a German Christmas Market?

Is that an England thing or just a long name for Christmas markets

Manchester and Brum have them round Xmas time selling 'German' Bratwurst and beer for £8 with lots of German flags waving.

People were buying tiny pots of baked beans with curry powder in them for silly money.

If they plan to charge me a tenner for a sausage I demand to be served in bloody German!

OK, one thing I can tell you is that "baked beans with curry powder" is 100% NOT genuine for a German Christnas market.

Paying silly money for it IS however very genuine for a German Christmas market.
